Back To Our Roots

A new chapter has begun at New Milton Town Football Club.

Earlier today, we were proud to officially announce our new teamwear partnership with GOAT, marking the start of an exciting journey into a future that is unmistakably our own.

Together with GOAT, we are producing our brand-new home and away kits, which will be unveiled shortly before the 2025/26 season. These kits will mark more than just a change in design. They will represent a powerful return to our heritage.

After proudly wearing red and blue since 1998, a legacy carried over from the merger with Lymington FC, we are now reclaiming our original club colours of yellow and blue.

This decision is about more than tradition. It’s about building our own identity. This evolution began last season, when our supporters voted to change the club’s nickname from the Linnets (a symbol more closely tied to Lymington) to something that reflects our own legacy.

We are now, of course, known as the Brickmakers. Rooted in the town’s historic brickmaking industry, this nickname isn’t just about where we came from; it’s about the strength and character of our community. We've already seen the nickname embraced in the stands and on the terraces, with fans proudly calling us ‘the Brickies’.

Our identity and colours are changing, but our core values at the M.A. Hart Stadium remain the same: ambition, courage and determination. These changes are just the beginning.

The upcoming season will also mark our return to the FA Cup for the first time since 2015/16. Donning the yellow and blue once again in the world's oldest national cup competition will be a moment of pride for everyone involved at the football club.

We can’t wait to reveal the new kits, designed in collaboration with GOAT to reflect our story and future. They are in production now and will be unveiled soon.

Together, we are shaping a club with a true identity and a powerful sense of belonging.

We are New Milton Town, and this is our time.
